That's a fair comparison: His running style is very similar to Klein's (stiff-arming defenders' faces into the turf, etc.), but he already has superior/smoother passing mechanics. He may or may not have all of Klein's intangibles, but his upside as a pure quarterback could be higher.

He has good pocket presence/vision. That's a start. Good size, decent mobility. He's no top 50 player, but he could potentially be a star if he has a good head on him, that's all I ask for in a recruit. Hope it pans out.

Well, you're entitled to your opinion, but it's worth noting that: Not only does Scout rank him as the #5 QB, they currently rank him as the #49 overall player.

It's also worth noting that Mangus has told Barker he's the best QB in the 2014 class. That's endorsement enough for me.

Northwestern junior QB Mason Rudolph has been offered by LSU and Virginia Tech thus far and is looking for more. USC is among the other schools showing some interest. "They said they would continue to watch my progress," Rudolph said. "It would be cool to hear (about an offer) from them." Georgia, Tennessee, Virginia, North Carolina and Notre Dame also are showing interest. Rudolph will go to some junior days this spring at the schools which have offered him. He does not have a favorite. This season Rudolph passed for nearly 4000 yards and 41 touchdowns and he rushed for nearly 500 yards and 10 scores.

FYI. Kid has made it public he wants to play for us but no offer has been extended. Anybody care to weigh in on that one for me. Since we clearly want people that want to be at Carolina and we clearly need all the help we can get at Oline.
